A Triple Alliance.

Unhsppily for the wretched victim of their ssssults, dyspepsia, constipation and bIliousness are faithful allies. When one of these foes attack the system, .he other two speedy follow in its wake. and successfully make their onslaught. Successivsly, but not successful, if Hos tetter's Stomach Bitlers be used to re- pei the onset The bitters as easily extirpstes these monsters ss St. George IS depicted in the act of doing to the dragon in the steel vignette upon the glass bottles which contain the medi- cine. Their flight, like their advance. is nearly simultaneous. Their mutu- slIty destroyed, they precipitstely re- treat, leaving health master of the posi- tion and strongly entrenched by the bitters. This grand tortifier is also 8 re liable bulwsrk against the insidious ss- saults of mslsrial disease, snd stops the approach of rheumatism It moreover, relIves nervous complaints, snd impsrts vigor to the weak.

SINCE the feasibility snd success of the irrizstIng canals is now incontests- ble, We are all beginning to discuss 10 real earnest what Ihe broad and fertile lands of Arizona will best produce. It is generally conceded that all temperate and some tropical fruits can be raised In Southern Arizona, and it seems that our climate would be well adapted to cotton raising. The great cotton plan tstions of the south are not carried on as they we're before the war, and the cotton yield has diminished perceptibly. The demand is large, and price gcod; the plant requires less water than corn or fruits, and although picking and get ting it ready for the gin is a great labor, it is, on the whole, much easier crop 10 raise than corn. We are confidently looking forward to the time ID the near future, when our mesa lands will be GOV cred with productions which will delight and enrich our people.

REPORTS from Tombstone say that the camp is again prosperous and full of life and activity. Particularly is this seen in the matter of the yearly assessment work on mining claims. During the last term of the District Court the law was Isid down in no uncertain terms thst owners of mining claims must put actually sl00 worth of work on their claims yearly or they are liable to be jumped; thst ten feet or eleven feet did not necessarily represent sl00 worth of labor. These rulings of the Court have given the miners confidence. and assess ment work is being done generally and in thorough manner throughout the camp.

ARIZONA is st length beginning Co feel the wave of prosperity which has spread through Oslitornis, Oregon and Wash ington Territory. Already our business men gre assuming an sir of confidence snd trust in the future welfare of our territory and especially of Tucson. With in the last two months there have been ss many real estate transfers made as ID all the rest of the year last past. And this IS among our lead ing merchants, those who have been with us during the long dark days of financial depression, and are the best judges of our financial condition. These men gre buying property in the busi- ness portion of the town and increasing the stock in their various stores. Many who were drawn sway by the glowing accounts of the boom" in the north are returning. Tucson real estate has now B known and certain value andIths tend ency seems to be towards 6 rise in the value of business properties.

OS the 10th instant, by singular CO., incidence, the Prescott Courier and Journal Miner devoted much of their editorial space to the misrepresentations by the New York Herald, of Arizona mining property. Ssyer's repor. of the Tortilitss IS of course the basis of all the comment. But the two papers discuss the matter differently, although one &C.,
 tuslly knows ss much as the other, of
 the merits of this bssely msligned prop erty. The CITIZEN, Star and Florence
 Enterprise, published within thirty miles of the Tortilitss, have tune and sgsIn on the strength of the month. ly output. vouched for the value of these mines. This, by the Journal Miner, is accepted as evidence of their worth and in bold and manly article It denounces thcir trsducers. Not so, however, with the Courier. It says, Eastern journals godfsthered the Tortillits mine affair: eastern people took their advice and invested, to their sorrow, they say. sl- though papers published near the mines say they are good. The Courier never recommended the Tortillits mines" It is loud in its denuncistions of Journal istic liars and vultures" and fraud ex- perts" ss il is pleased to term the ire sponsfble blstherskite who reported upon the vorthlessness of Arizona mines in general and the Tortilitss ID psrtcu- lar, neither of which he ever saw or ex- smined, But the papers published rear the mines say they are good, and they will continue to do so, notwithstanding that these mines lsck the recommends- ton of the Courier. The Courier then publishes quite lsuditory notice on the mines of Ysyspsi county, every word of which for the common good of the territory. we hope is true. The Pres cott papers published near these mines say they are good, and ss we know noth- ing ourselves to the contrary, We accept the statement in ss good faith as the Journsl-Miner has done with us. The very fsct that this shyster ssyr whose entire residence ID Arizona did not ex- ceed forty eight hours, pronounced at one fell svoop the general worthless ness of Arizona mines, is enough to for ever dame him and his entire report in the eyes of all right-minded, thinking people. His report on the Tortilitss should be accepted with as much allow ance as his report on the mines of Ys- vspsi county.

The Chinese LogatIon.. Doctor.

A person much stared at at the Glover reception was the doctor of the Chinese legation. lie is a tall, sallow, thin faced, angle eyed man, the countenance as in- expressive as that of @ mummy. He wears lovely dress. hOwever-a petit coat of deep indigo hrocadcd silk, with a loose over garment of silver gray. He is a prominent figure in Washington, and can often be seen sailing down the middle of the street, queue flying out behind. I suppose he k going Co see some sick laundryman, for l haven't heard of his being called in by an American, profess sionaly, but once, and that was tO see a sick dog. He prescribed and gave the poor animal immediate relief A knot of English physicians gathered about the Chinese doctor at the Glover reception.
 Do you speak French" asked ono of the Englishmen.
 The Chinamau shook his head.
 Do you speak German" said another.
 No; l speak Engleese," replied the Chinaman; whercupon there was diSmay and consternation in the ranks of the Eng. fish, and they fell Co, at once. in their native tongue.-Fuller Walker iu Kansas City Journal

FoR a long time our people seemed to think that, although our bloom" would coms in time. still our main hope was for the mythical capitalist from the east Co come to us with his abundant innocence. and long bank account, and build for us cur smelter, our samplinG works aud dig for us our ditches- But he never came, and finally we swoke from our letharRy, and found that if we wanted all these good things we must follow the example of our northern neighbors and help ourselves, not wait for others to assist us. And now our ssmp- ling works are built, and are proving 6 fnancial success. Our long delayed and much talked of smelter is partly finished and is sn assured fact. Five irrigatins ditch companies have been formed, aud work has actually begun on three. This means business and the way to bring the boom" among us. Eastern capital seeing that we hsve faith enough in our enterprises to put our own money in them is gradually gaining confidence and is beginning to show it by taking an interest in our schemes.

The Chino Ranch Sold for Four
 Millions.

What will be, if the intentions of its projectors are carried out, one of the biggest and most important schems ever broached iH Southern California, vGs fairly set on foot yesterday, when the Chino Valley Manufacturing and Im- provement Company filed its articles of incorporation in San Bernsrdino. The significance of this Is that Richard Glrd has sold 23.0O0 acres of his famous Chino rancho to & Minneapolis syndicate for nearly S4,OOO,O0. himself retaining c handsome interest. The syndicate now. includes Mir. Gird, Harvey L. Ores (president of the Farmers Exchsuge Bank, San Bernardino). Robert B. Hun ter, Henry M. Ryan, John R. WolcOtt and others. The capital stock is SlO.- 100000, all subscribed. The company intends to spend Rt least SI,O0OOO0 within the next eighteen months ia the way of improvements on the property Rolling -mills, blast furnaces, pipe mills. etc. will be erected at the new town of Chino, which Mir. Gird had already started, and winch the company pro- poses to make the Pullman of Soatberu CsiiforDis. The company controls m immense deposit Of iron ore tgenty-fye miles from Dsggett. Tbs iron IS said to be better than the Lake Superior ore, which has driven European ores out of the market. To get plenty of coke cheap itfe company has purchased lot of Washington Territory coal lards, from which an excellent coking coal is being mined. IL claimed by the com paDy that it can manufacture p;y iron in Southern California for only S3 her ton more than Cleveland prices, while freight from Cleveland costs Sl5 to lG. Such an establishment, operated in a town of it's own workmen, will Ee of great finsncisl importance in Southern California. Their projectors think they can make a go of 1t, and will push the matter with all their might.-Los An geles Times.

TIE question of female sufiersge IS again sgitstins the Solons of the Wash ington Territory legislature. About four years ago the sdvocstes for vomans rights. managed to get law through the Legislature, giving suffrage to the woman. But two years practical appii- cation of the law, proved the country hardly educated up to such advanced theories, and the lsw vAs repealed. Nov it is again introduced, but is meeting with such strong opposition on all sides, thst there is little likelihood of its be- coming 6 law.
